London’s Dover Street Market to Relocate

Dover Street Market is an iconic, multibrand store that was established by Comme des Garçons bosses Adrian Joffe and Rei Kawakubo.

According to a report published this week in Property Week, a real estate publication, Dover Street market is scheduled to relocate to a new location sometime next year.

Currently located at 17-18 Dover Street, the store was established ten years ago as a multi-storey, multibrand space known for its innovative mix of labels and conceptual pieces.

The brand is reportedly abandoning its home in lieu of moving into a new 33,000 sq ft space located at 8-22 Haymarket, which was vacated by Burberry in 2009 and which previously housed the London brand’s former flagship.

Joffe confirmed the move to WWD, with the relocation set to take place at the end of 2015.

Like 10 Corso Como in Milan and Colette in Paris, the store is well known for championing emerging talent; they are the exclusive stockists for Craig Green’s award-winning Spring/Summer 2015 menswear collection.

DSM has also worked with established brands, for instance showing off Nicolas Ghesquière’s debut collection for Louis Vuitton. Growing from its London origins, there are now Dover Street Market outposts in New York City, Tokyo, and Beijing.
